Electrostatic wire element printers; electric input signals.-An electrostatic printer or recorder in which liquid ink is selectively deposited on a surface of a record medium from a recording stylus in continuous contact with the recording medium as claimed in parent Specification 1,064,344 is modified in that the stylus is formed by a plurality of electrode wires between which the ink is retained by surface tension at the surface of the record medium and the ink is deposited selectively on application to the electrodes of a H.T. potential corresponding to the character selected, whereby the surface tension is modified to allow deposition of the ink. Type carriages.-In one embodiment a continuously rotating platen 12, Fig. 1, supports a record sheet 11, Fig. 3, which is in contact with a stylus 10 attached to an ink reservoir 21 mounted on a lead screw 16 which is driven by a motor 15 for traversing of the record sheet and deposition of the ink at selected points on the surface of the sheet when a H.T. potential is applied from a source 13, whose terminals are connected to the stylus and platen shaft. In another embodiment a rotary disc 54, Fig. 5, supports a plurality of radially extending styli 55 which are in continuous contact with a recording web 40, whilst the styli are traversing the web, the H.T. potential being applied by the source 13 whose terminals are connected to a commutator ring 57 on the disc 54 and to a stationary platen 50 having an arcuate web supporting surface. Web guiding and feeding arrangements.- Record web 40, Fig. 5, is drawn off a roll 41 and passed over a guide formed by a stationary block 44 having an arcuate surface 45 and a number of coacting guide rollers 46, 47, 48, which distend the web against the arcuate surface 45 whose radius corresponds to the circle described by the rotary styli 55. The curved web is then passed under the rotary disc 54 in contact with a stationary guide platen 50 and finally wound on to a roll 42. Wire element styli; recording pens.-In one embodiment the stylus 10, Fig. 3, comprises a number of electrode wires 30 extending from the base of the reservoir, the spacing of the contiguous electrode wires being such that whilst the wire electrodes are in contact with the record sheet 11, the surface tension of the ink prevents the ink from being deposited on the sheet unless the surface tension is modified or broken by H.T. potential applied to a convex lip member 31. The stylus is integral with ink reservoir 21. In a further embodiment the stylus 70, Fig. 8, which depends from an ink reservoir 58 comprises a pair of converging electrode wires 72 and an ink flow restricting wire 76, the arrangement preventing spilling of the ink due to centrifugal action when the stylus is mounted on a rotary disc.
